pasitheaWell... What I'd read about banana slugs said they mostly eat decaying things and only a little plant matter. This was a lie!
Well. actually, they seem to leave most of the plants alone but they're like little homing missiles for peppermint it turns out. They're totally mad for it and one slug can devour a surprising amount of mint.
So. Every morning I go out and catch them and chuck them out into the woods. At this rate, I should be a world class slug hurler in no time. The other option, I guess is to remember that banana slugs are edible and to contemplate the fact that ones stuffed with mint leaves are probably extra good.
Mmm... Banana-mint slugs.....
